The Crystal World J.G.Ballard is often considered the godfather of cli-fi.The famous British author's novels of the 1960s,including The Burning World,The Drowned World and The Wind From Nowhere,imagine terrible climate-based disasters. But they're all too gentle in nature compared with his first truly mature work. The Crystal World.In a sense,The Crystal World is a horror novel-instead of the horror happening to a person,it's happening to Earth. Hothouse Brian Aldiss'Hothouse-a series of short stories published in 1962-remains one of the most extreme visions of climate change.In it,Earth of the furthest future has changed so completely that it's nearly unrecognizable.Humans struggle to survive in this strange world of heat waves-which,admittedly,isn't very scientifically possible but is all the more wonderful because of Aldiss' unbound imagination. The Ice Schooner The climate change in Michael Moorcock's 1969 novel The Ice Schooner is man-made in a different way:It's caused by a long,extreme winter that settles around Earth following a nuclear war.The book presents a world where a new ice age has resulted in a frozen planet.There's nothing scientific about Moorcock's setting.But it does warn,in its own way,of the disastrous climate change that humanity can bring to the world. Ice Anna Kavan's Ice,like Ballard's The Crystal World,is filled with far more symbolism than the typical early cli-fi novel.In the freezing environment of Kavan's 1967 book,a nuclear war has led to massive global climate change that has turned the world into another Siberia. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了四本气候科幻小说。 1.Which book contains the most frightening scenes?
